    Any Woma keepers on here???
    :snake:I have 0.1 Woma and she is a reeaaallly interesting snake. Kinda different from what im used to keeping lol.

    I'm more of a fan of the Light contrast womas. but dark contrasts have a look all their own imo.
    Any other keepers out there?

    The womas and black headed pythons are just plain beautiful. I own none, and I can never make up my mind which one I like best. Yours is so beautiful that I almost would say I like it better than the black headed python. They used to be crazy expensive.

    I know Skiploder has at least one... I met and almost bought his male "Hank," but ended up getting a Stimson's Python (and BP) from him instead. Stimson's are another Australian python, but totally different species - both are super cool snakes, and yours is a pretty one! :)

    I forgot to ask, why is the woma different than what you are used to keeping? Is it because of the last picture? Judging by your screen name, I'd guess that you have blood pythons, so temperment can't really be it. So I'm curious. :)

    Womas and black headed pythons (the only snakes in their genus) are very different from any other snakes out there. They are physically very ancient compared to other snakes in the pythonidae family. One of the physical differences is that they have no heat pits.

    They are just kind of oddities among pythons, but very very cool snakes!

    I hope to have a woma project some day (along with every other aussie species probably, lol). Great looking girl you have there!!

    My 6 year old daughter carries him around and he hangs there like a............noodle.

    I used to have blackheadeds too. Cool snakes...............

    I have a young female, she is my only snake so far. Well I had a corn snake for a few weeks but really wasn't into it. She is my first snake, and I can't recommend them more highly for beginners. They don't stress very easily, are very hardy, don't need high humidity, seem to be pretty tolerant of temperature fluctuations and are usually very docile. My Susie is so sweet, she has never once tried to strike at me, even her feeding response is gentle, though that is unusual for this species and it will probably change as she grows. For a snake, she has a ton of personality.:)

    She has shed since this pic and is a tad bit bigger, but not much.

    I love love looooove Womas. I hope to own one someday. Sadly, because of the new exotic species regulations here in BC, I need to have a permit for a Woma. :tears:

    You don't need a permit for a Woma. The only time you would need a permit is if it got over 9 feet, which really isn't likely.

    That's supposed to be typical, right? I've often heard "woma" and "wet noodle" in the same sentance.

    At one point I had three womas - and they were all very noodle-like.

    my dad's friend who's an ex pat australian has offered to let me have a one year woma is it true they settle around 4-5 ft in length.

    Re: Any Woma keepers on here???
    It depnds on the locale. There are different locales, I think 4-5 feet would be the smallest, the largest getting upwards of 8 feet. Outside of Australia, the locales are all mixed up, and I think the average size turns out to be around 5-6 feet.
